4.11 Transporting a Disk Array (Mylex Controllers Only)

You can transport a disk array group between any single controller to any

dual controllers and vice versa. However, it may not be easy for you to

know which disk drives in an enclosure belongs to which specific disk

array. To help you, the locate function is expanded to indicate visually all

disk drives (dedicated hot spares and global hot spares are not included)

that belong to a specific disk array by using LEDs.

To locate a disk array for transportability, use the following procedure:

1. In the Controller View Window, double click a logical drive.

2. The Logical Drive Information Window opens (see Figure 4.43).

Note:

Clicking the Locate button in the Logical Drive Information

window (Figure 4.43) turns on LEDs on all of the physical

drives belonging to the disk array excluding the global or

dedicated hot spares.

3. Click the Transport Button, the Disk Array Transport Information

Window opens (Figure 4.44).
